Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
Is a haltech out of the price range too? I know they are expanding thier range both up and down in features and cost. Though considering the work done to this, I'm suprised you've limited your budget on the ecu...
I just figured out why you guys love those cross braces!
Guys, get a YouTube channel, get someone you know who can work with a camera. Bamse's turbo underpants gets 150k views per video for a half finished product( and it's in Finnish). If I wouldn't love my job so goddamn much, I'd come over and do it myself.
Not interested in a youtube channel or videos. To me that's just another project and I already have enough of those.
Episode 1: Working on the frame
Notch tube, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, it fits, notch other side, test fit, it doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, test fit, doesn't fit, grind a little bit off, tube is too short, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, scratch heads for 30 minutes, make new tube, repeat all of the above, it's also too short, "**** it, fill the gap with weld, no one will notice". Repeat for next tube.
Episode length: 6 hours. Visible progress: None.
Episode 2: Working on the uprights
Open CAD software, open netflix on other monitor, spend 15 minutes deciding between Under Siege 2 or Time Cop, spin the model for a while, make some solid bodies, spin the model for a while, get distracted by movie for 20 minutes, spin the model some more, look up fastener sizes on McMaster, get distracted by their vast selection of jib cranes, sketch some geometry, pause movie, open youtube, oh a new episode of that thing you like is up, watch intently for 30 minutes, stop kidding yourself and close the CAD software, finish last 15 minutes of the youtube video, it's 2am, go to sleep.
Episode length: 8 hours. Visible progress: None. Actual progress: None.
And so on.
Oh yeah, we'll rake it in.

You can't use spaghetti as a structural member in your roll cage!!!
Were those motorsport zip ties on the spaghetti? I'd expect nothing less.
Looks great. What machine are you using? Looks like a BP with cnc?

Brackets look very nice, I am however disappointed by the use a different colored bolt on the alternator unless that is the flash doing that
